Native mobile app

codolis native mobile app

Native applications are popular in the mobile industry since they take advantage of the specific operating system’s inbuilt features and, at the same time, perform smooth and fast. They are developed in a programming language that is native to the device and operating system – Android or iOS.

This allows the use of advanced features, complex networking, memory management, etc. while there are no limitations to app performance and speed.

Advantages:

  • Provide access to all features offered by the device and OS
  • Allow the use of advanced features, complex networking, memory management, etc
  • No limitations to app performance and speed which is important when creating graphics-intensive applications such as games
  • When used correctly, the user interface updates together with the operating system over time

Disadvantages:

  • Two or more separate applications need to be developed if supporting multiple devices, e.g. Android and iOS
  • No code is shared between the versions of separate applications
  • Development can be slow if two or more separate applications are supported
  • Different codebases need to be tested thus greatly affecting testing time

Cross-Platform

Cross-platform mobile apps help businesses reach a larger audience as they are not limited to only Android or iOS users and can go up both, on the Google Play and the App Store. Creating multi-platform solutions provides clients with one code that works for all platforms on all varieties of devices.

Our vast experience has made us capable of taking on cross-platform mobile apps development projects for different mobile platforms for any industry

Advantages:

  • Major part of the code can be shared between different versions of applications across devices
  • User interface (UI) performance can be as fast as native as UI is rendered using native controls

Disadvantages:

  • Some native code needs to be written
  • Speed may be affected as intermediate languages are interpreted
  • Access to the device and OS features rely on the framework or plugin support
  • UI customization depends on framework support
 

Hybrid Mobile Applications

Hybrid mobile applications are installed on devices and include elements from native applications and the ones from web apps, websites that are not installed on devices but are accessed on the Internet via a browser.

When a hybrid app is used, web content is displayed using web technologies such as CSS, JavaScript, HTML, HTML5.

Advantages:

  • Major part of the code can be shared between different versions of applications across devices
  • The code is written once and deployed across all mobile platforms thus reducing development time and costs
  • The app update can be done frequently as it is not necessary to resubmit the new version via the AppStore if the modifications have not touched the native code

Disadvantages:

  • Some native code needs to be written
  • Interaction is done via embedded web-browser control thus speed might be impacted
  • Access to the device and OS features rely on the framework or plugin support
